#Apulia Content
RegionPuglia, the region that forms the heel of the Italian peninsula, stretches between the Adriatic and Ionian seas. Its food identity is built on contrasts: the dry inland plateaus of the Murgia and Tavoliere yield wheat, olive oil, and almonds such as the Mandorla di Toritto, while the coast sustains mussel farming traditions like those of the Cozza Tarantina, raised in the enclosed waters of Mar Piccolo near Taranto. Extensive vineyards, producing both table grapes and wine grapes, round out a region where food culture is rooted first in agriculture.
